Boiler Room Brawl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Boiler Room Brawl is a professional wrestling match type. It is known as being one of the signature matches of Mick Foley. The first Boiler Room Brawl occurred at SummerSlam 1996 and was held between Foley (using his Mankind persona) and The Undertaker. The rules of this particular match stated that the match would begin in the boiler room of the arena and the first competitor to make their way to the ring and take possession of an urn, which was being held by The Undertaker's then-manager Paul Bearer, would win the match. However, in future Boiler Room Brawl matches, the first person to exit the room was declared the winner.
Matches of this type were:
- SummerSlam 1996 - Mankind def. The Undertaker
- Backlash 1999 - Mankind def. The Big Show
- September 23, 1999 episode of SmackDown! - Triple H def Mankind
- December 20, 1999 episode of RAW is WAR - 'Santa Clauses' def. Mankind
